My entire family has been going to Dr. Barkley for 18 years. His staff are truly exceptional -- you will notice on their website bios that they have been there for years working as a tight knit team. They are good people. Ellen (receptionist) is very competent, personable, and always makes everyone feel right at home. Dr. Barkley is very knowledgeable but his best quality is that he is extremely practical, making recommendations that best benefit the patient and not his pocket book. I have since moved to the Heights and decided a few months ago to see another dentist close by. WORST MISTAKE EVER. She said I had 10 cavities total and that I would need fillings. I went back to Dr. Barkley and he said they were watch areas that hardly were even visible, and that drilling them out would remove more tooth than just watching it with good brushing behavior. I trust Dr. Barkley with my teeth's lives and will drive from the Heights to come see him. So skip all the gimmicks of other "modern" dentists offices -- wine, crab cakes, massage chairs, etc. They will make sure you will pay for that services by tearing your teeth apart with unnecessary fillings. Go to Dr. Barkley for down to earth, basic, genuine service. read more
